Abstract

[The article presents a system of the musical culture of North India where the category of up-shastriya, or semi-classics, takes a special place. This stratum of music is the most extensive and multi-layered one and is the main type of musical art in India nowadays. Thumri is music of a lyrical nature and romantic mood. The authors see into the leading genre of the up-shastriya, a vocal thumri, and place it in the context of the related genres dadra and tappa and the regional music of Hindustani (chaiti, kajri, savani, hori, jhula, baramasi). In the XXI century, the up-shastriya music continues to develop not only in many style varieties in the vast net of gharana (schools) and in many local genre variants of Hindustani. It forms the main part of the sound “field” of the South Asia.]
